    The DBag shot and killed a 9 year old! *Edited at the request of the Mayor* thats the tragedy.

    Mr DBag shooter is in custody before he could off himself, now we have to house and feed this AHole until we can try him.

    ETA: If a well known Conservative female had been shot in the head many lefties, nationwide and in the news media, would have noticed A CHILD was killed. Instead they are pining over a politician because a D followed her name, the fact that a child was killed isnt as important as a left leaning judge or a Democrat politician.

    Blue, everywhere in the news Congresswoman Gifford's name leads the story, not the judge that was fatally shot, nor the others that are dead or injured, esp a child. She was more than likely the focus of the shooter, and thus leads the story.

    I too think it is tragic that this scumbucket (too nice a word) resorted to violence to make a point and he shot or killed 18 people to make a point. It is equally sad that respect for other people and for life is not taught in our society.

    Clue: This thread is about Politics. Clue: A political figure was shot in the head today.


    If you were to be shot tomorrow, it would probably be noted in your local media If your Governor were shot
    tomorrow, it would be noted in the local AND National media.

    National media follows National figures no matter what political party they belong to.

    Blue, I wonder if, in the media's case, it is that they have information on the public figures - the politicians, but don't have much info on the child, and the family may not want that info released, so they can process and mourn privately. As private citizens, we should afford them that right, as politicians, that's part of being a "public servant" - lack of privacy.

    What's that phrase - words have consequences? Actions do, also. And postings on Facebook.

    During the fall campaign season, a former Governor had a post on Facebook. A map was shown, depicting spots where Democrats (in particular, those who had voted for health care reform) were running for re-election; those Democrats were noted by crosshairs symbols like those seen through the scope of a gun. Ms. Giffords was among those on the map.

    The media made the case that a Democrat politicians, or a left leaning judges, life is more important then a childs life.

    What I find tragic is that others follow along with the MSM's judgment of whose life is more meaningful. The life of a child, or the life of a Democratic politician or judge. The fact that the media and the sheeples view that the politicians life was more news worthy is sickening.

    Roof top voting has started.

    Lets find out what this morons real motivation was before we say stupid things like this, ok?

    Blue, the 'voting from the rooftops' thing is INSANE. Killing a civilian who posed no threat to you is MURDER. Period.

    So stop it, OK?

    I expected this to come out, but not from you.

    I don't want to put words in your mouth.... But this post makes me feel that you would be OK 'banning' speech of this sort.

    Will we ever get past living our lives in fear of the lowest common denominator? There will ALWAYS be crazy people who do crazy things. Why should we inhibit our Liberty to keep ourselves "safe" from the crazy people? I mean, look at FOX/HUFFPO/MEDIA MATTERS/etc. The same insane aruguments come out every time something like this happens.

    Sorry, just trying to stay with the media's theme for today.
